Mind reading, I used the concubine system to become the empress

The emperor also knew everything else he did.

Suddenly no one dared to speak out.

Soon, the news spread through newspapers and everywhere in the streets.

The people were talking about it, and those who were living in hardship saw hope and expressed their willingness to go to Guanbei to try their luck.

"I heard that if you go to Guanbei to open up wasteland, your slavery will be cancelled. Is this true?"

"Of course it's true. It's all in the newspaper. How could it be false?"

"Great! I can finally be free from slavery, and my descendants will be free from slavery too!"

Even some people who were doing well and had some savings were tempted to try their luck in Guanbei.

"I heard there's a lot of land in Guanbei. If you're willing to work hard, you can get a lot."

"Yes, and the court also provides various preferential policies. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"Let's go for it. Fortune and wealth come from risk. I want to go to Guanbei and try my luck!"

"That's right, if we can get the land that can be used for 30 or 40 years."

"As long as I save a little more, my next generation won't have to suffer so much."

What surprised Lin Shu the most was that the students in the college also responded to the call and expressed their willingness to go to Guanbei to contribute their strength.

"It is my duty to serve my country!"

"We have learned the arts of literature and martial arts, and now is the time to serve the country!"

"I want to use the knowledge I have learned to help people live a better life!"

Lin Shu was amazed when he heard the news, and couldn't help but sigh that the college's patriotic education was truly deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!

The ideological and moral education and patriotic education in recent years have really not been in vain.

The effect will be apparent when something happens.

It seems that this matter cannot be taken lightly and we have to continue.

Lin Shu was very pleased to see the people being so enthusiastic. It seemed that her and her father's efforts were not in vain.

In the palace, Lin Shu was detained by the emperor to review memorials.

"Dad, the people will definitely be in danger on their way to Guanbei. Should we send some soldiers to protect them?"

Lin Shu tilted her head and frowned. She felt frightened when she thought of the bandits in Guanbei.

The emperor smiled and patted her head, "Fubao is very thoughtful, this is exactly what father meant."

"Dad is going to recruit 40,000 new soldiers and draw 20,000 veterans from various armies. Half of the new soldiers and veterans will form an army of 40,000 to escort the people to Guanbei!"

"The remaining 20,000 are being trained in the military camp."

"What do you think, Fubao?"

Lin Shu nodded silently, "Anyway, our border is not far from Guanbei, and there are many soldiers there, so it will be easy to provide support."

"Forty thousand should be enough."

"In this way, after the reclamation is completed, even if our border becomes larger, we will have 40,000 more soldiers guarding it, so there will be no need to send additional troops there."

The emperor announced this decree at the court meeting the next day.

The ministers were overjoyed and shouted "Long live the emperor".

Originally, they were planning to find someone to escort their servants and relatives over.

Unexpectedly, the emperor took the initiative to take charge of the matter, which saved them a lot of money.

But before they could finish their joy, they heard the emperor add another sentence.

"This land reclamation in Guanbei is a major undertaking that will benefit both the country and the people. It's a huge undertaking. I wonder if you have any opinions on this."

The faces of the ministers, who were originally happy, suddenly turned dark.

Isn't this just spending money to support the emperor's army?

But they had no choice but to grit their teeth and stand up.

"I am willing to donate five hundred taels."

"I am willing to donate one thousand taels."

……

The emperor was very satisfied. He didn't expect these guys to be so sensible.

Lin Shu complained silently in his heart.

[Maybe you have been confiscated too many times and you are scared. Rather than having your house confiscated, why don’t you offer it up on your own initiative?]

The emperor was not angry, but complained about Lin Shu in his heart.

I don’t know who it is, but he asked others to hand over their property.

When the news spread to the people, they were extremely excited and ran around telling each other.

"The imperial court really cares about us common people! They even sent troops to protect us in Guanbei!"

"That's right! This has never happened before!"

"With an emperor like this, what do we have to worry about?"

"That's right. I was worried that the journey was long and there might be danger along the way."

"Now there is no need to be afraid at all."

"I've decided! My whole family will move to Guanbei!"

"We will go too! For Dayan and for His Majesty the Emperor!"

For a time, there was an endless stream of people signing up to join the army, especially those who were going to Guanbei with their families, who were vying for the first place.

They are all ordinary people with elderly parents and young children to support. They just wanted to live a simple and stable life and never thought about going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

But now, their hearts are full of gratitude and hope. Dayan has given them beautiful hope, and they also want to contribute their strength to Dayan!

They have to protect their country and also protect their families in this country!

Even though they were left in Kyoto for training, they were very relieved.

Because there are veterans who protect their families.

As long as his family gets some land, good days are ahead and there is nothing to worry about.

They have gone through all kinds of hardships. Could reclaiming wasteland be more painful than being exploited by landlords and high-ranking officials?

They go to Guanbei to work hard for their own benefit, which is completely different from being exploited.

"Hey, have you heard? The imperial court actually sent troops to protect those who went to Guanbei to open up wasteland!"

"Is this true? When did the court become so kind?"

"Of course it's true! My cousin works in the Ministry of War, how could he lie to me?"

"Oh my God! This is such a great thing!"

"That's right! As long as we send people to Guanbei and divide up the land, we can make another fortune!"

At night, guests were everywhere in Yihong Courtyard discussing these topics.

"Did you know? The emperor actually said that prostitutes can also sign up to go to Guanbei to open up wasteland."

Another person looked filthy and said, "I don't know what His Majesty wants them to do. Maybe he wants them to comfort the peasants who are tired after a day's work."

The man burst into laughter after he finished speaking. As he was laughing, a knife was placed on his neck.

"It is a serious crime to slander His Majesty. Take him away."

"The rest loudly proclaim His Majesty's will."

This scene was played out in different brothels, and the imperial guards took away many people who spoke outrageously.

And loudly announced Lin Shu's proposal.

This action gave the women in the brothel great confidence in the will.

They really thought that the clients were trying to make them do that kind of thing, just as they said.

Unexpectedly, the emperor really wanted to rescue them.

Some sentimental girls burst into tears on the spot, ran after the imperial guards, and wanted to sign up right there.

Some of them kept their troops on hold, wanting to see the attitude of the imperial guards.

"Hey, my good girls, where are you going?"
